Scratching my head on this one. Thought he could have been a good FB.

[patman12]

He'll be back

 

[Dillon46]

odd maybe they looking to make room for something else.....but Hankerson got scooped up by the Bills so not sure what

 

[TomPatriot]

Need a DT. Jets ran for 143 yards and a lot up the middle. Kitchen.

Edit: this is Reiss' take and I think he's right.

 

[PatriotReign]

We can't even get Hankerson back because of the stupid Bills.

 

[Triumph]

Joey fell on Vollmers leg.

 

[Triumph]

Chargers claim Mr Cleveland

 

[Deus Irae]

Given how little we know about Hankerson's time at Gillette, this is arguably a week too late.

 

[Gumby]

Looking to sign more street OL help maybe?

 

[RayClay]

Must be looking at someone

 

[letekro]

Expendable with Mr. Jackson in the fold. Plus, he sucks.

 

[Joey007]

He'll be back

How many times have we said that lately.

 

[Ivan]

They are looking at immediate needs and will keep moving pieces around. Unless he's claimed he will be back.

Didn't show enough as a lead blocker to be seriously considered as a FB. He was just a big back (with plenty of heart) that lacked explosion.

 

[BradyFTW!]

Well he's just not very good, so this isn't really a surprise.

RB/FB Joey Iosefa cleared waivers and is now free to sign with the Patriots' practice squad, which is the intention.

Mike reiss

 

[InRodWeRust]

Aren't we down to our 7th string left tackle? Maybe found Bill found one on sale at Walmart and is making room for him.

Nope. Another LB, Dekoda Watson.

ATM, the Patriots have:

2 QB
3 RB
5 WR
3 TE
9 OL

8 DL
7 LB
12 DB

4 ST (incl. Slater)

 

[DarrylS]

Keep him on the practice squad, nice insurance if needed.. right now everyone is needed.

Better to have someone familiar with the offense, rather trying bring someone from the street up to speed in the next couple of weeks..

 

[BlueThunder]

Iosefa cleared waivers and signed to PS.....
